Wave Gotik Treffen 2008. Building my way to Leipzig.

01 9th, 2008 / Tags: , , , , , ,

WGT 2007Last week I bought my flight to Berlin to stay there a couple of days and then go to the Wave Gotik Treffen!! I’ve never been there, but as my friends tell, it must be an incredible experience.

WGT 2007It is supposed to be something like a huge meeting of goths from all over the world, something like a big family. When I search photos of it I allways find every style in people: the after-punk ones, classic goths, electro and cyber ones, the fetish looks… The great thing is that the whole city becomes dark. A friend of mine told me that in every corner of the city, every shop or restaurant they prepare something “goth” for that days. I’m afraid of feeling so comfortable these days that maybe I’ll get depressed when the festival is over.

WGT 2007Check the official page gallery where I’ve taken the nice photos for this post. You’ll find not only a lot of photos of people, but also live photos of the bands. The thing that still impresses me is to find families with their children! It’s nice to find kids there, I suppose it has to be funny for them, as their parents dress them up in those black and goth clothes, they make up them… Girls even look like little princesses!

WGT 2007We don’t know the line-up yet, but I have my wishlist:

  • And One
  • UnterArt
  • London After Midnight
  • Combichrist
  • VNV Nation
  • Cinema Strange
  • The Sisters of Mercy (incredible, but last year they played in the South of Spain!)
  • Covenant
  • and many more…
